Today’s daily audiophile roundup is an entry from Bobby Owsinski on his blog which is a chapter excerpt from the book Abby Road to Ziggy Stardust, by Ken Scott and Bobby Owsinski. The post recounts a recording session episode involving The Jeff Beck group which included several unknowns before they were to have break away successes. Pop music notables included in the story are the great Rod Stewart and Ron Wood. Other aspects include some adjustments made to standard studio techniques, including special arrangements made for the microphones on the instruments, which included a bagpipe.
Another nice post from the always excellent Bobby. Read the full article here:
